prevent any noise from contact of the

the jacket, which would instantly stop
its motion, leaving the shaft inside to
revolve, but without doing harm to
whoever might be caught.

Virgil's renowned hero, Eneas, re-
ceived his familiar epithet of ''pious'
from his loving care of his old father,
Anchises. In all times and climcs u
like care has ever been regarded rs Il

point at which such care may be cxer-
cised is in guarding the health of our
aged parents, and thus protracting their
life and rendering it worth protracting.
The generation now nearing its close
had its birth and growth when this
whole matter was little understood even
by the medical profession. All knew
that it was II common thing for the old
to be suddenly struck down with apo
plexy, or hurried to their graves by IN
attack of pneumonia, or bronchitis duo
to an ordinary cold. OF such and
kindred cases it was said they had died
of old age. Life, it was thought, had
reached its natural limit; the body was
worn out in every part and went to

SUBMISSION oF WIVES.
A Social and Domestic Question OF Con
siderable Interest and Importance.

A Social and Domestic Question OF Con-
siderable Interest and Importance.
How far this submitting unto ones
own husband should be carried, is a
question for consideration. True it is
that wifely submission is not in much
danger of being carried to excess in this
age of woman's rights; and yet one
sometimes sees an exception in the per-
son of meek woman, who, partly
through fear, and partly through mis-
taken notion of duty, merges her senti-
ments, her ideas, her very self in her
husband. She loses her own identity,
and becomes simply his echo.
This would be less deplorable than it
is if the husband who thus absorbs her
were always a superior character (for
such women are always weak and would
not amount to much in themselves).
But sad as it is, these oaks to which
such tender vines cling are not always
the strong supports they should be.
When a man is selfish, tyrannical
and dishonest, so much so that he even
finds himself almost without friends,
must his gentle wife, who is capable of
winning friends by her own lovely
character, renounce every hope of hap
piness. of friendship, of the pleasure of
society, by frowning upon all who dis
agree with him, forsaking all who dis
approve his meanness, and making
strangers feel that she is as bad as HIM
self? lean not think it right. 1t is too
much for one soul to require of another!
Too much in the wrong direction. 1t
is beautiful to see wife love and seek
to save her husband, all the more as he
becomes u sinking ship" but II she
can not save him, If he will deliberately
sink, she is not. l believe, required to
sink with him to the extent of wreck
ing her own life. Woman has indi-
viduality of her own, character of
her own to maintain just rs much as
man. 1t is rs valuable to her as her
husbands is to him; and she Is fully as
strong to maintain it. The best of men
admit that only in a physical sense is
she "the weaker sex;" but mournful
exception is the woman who adds the
folly of allowing herself To become the
echo of hollow, brazen vessel, to the
mistake OF having become his WIFE,

HEATING BY STEAM.
The Pressure Required to Make 1t An
Active Source of Danger.

Active Source of Danger.
Some interesting experiments have
been made by Mr.. N. l.. Chappelle,
steam-heating engineer, of Washington.
to determine under what conditions
fires can be charged to steam pipes.
He took II wooden box six feet long and
six inches in the clear, inside measure
ment, through the center of which he
ran one-inch pipe, the latter fitting
tightly into the box. Around this
steam-pipe various substances were
placed in the several trials, and closely
packed around it. First, charcoal was
taken and subjected to the steam heat
of pipe six hours at pressure of fifty
pounds Temperature 296 o3 eight
hours at n pressure of seventy pounds
Temperature 314 g then, for twenty
four hours, steam of various pressures,
ranging from ten to seventy pounds,
was passed through pipe and the char
coal did not take fire. But when super
heated steam (seventy pounds pressure)
heated to 420 . i. had passed through
the pipe one hour and twenty minutes
the charcoal took fire. With sawdust the
results were similar, except that with
the superheated steam flowing through
the pipe for five days, the saw-dust was
found to be somewhat charred, but there
was no indication of fire. In another
experiment 1l-inch hole was bored
through solid piece of scantling
twenty-five inches long and 4x6 inches
cross section, and through this hole Il
1-inch pipe was run, and steam was let
in pipe rs above. After running for
over twenty-five days, with pressure
at no time less than twenty pounds nor
more than seventy pounds, no evidence
of fire could be detected, although the
wood was badly discolored to depth
of three-fourths inch, where it sur
rounded the pipe. Old cotton waste
used around the machinery was placed
in the box above mentioned and took
fire inside Of an hour, steam ofsixty-fve
pound pressure passing through the
pipe. Mr.. ChappcYle's conclusions are
that steam of ordinary temperature
passing through pipes is not the cause
of fire, as far AS ignition ofwood in con-
tact with pipes is concerned. but when
superheatel to about 400o Il. the steam
becomes an active source Of danger

RIVAL ROBBER BANDS.
Daring Operations of Two Bands OF Mid
night Maurauders In Paris.

Daring Operations OF Two Bands OF Mid
night Maurauders In Paris.
Some recent burglaries which were
committed in the suburbs, and the per-
petrators of which We're arrested. have
led to the discovery of two bands of
midnight maurauders, whose exploits
are worthy of record by II Sue. Two
leading Representatives of Partisan
rascaldom, respectively named Poussin
and Boutonne, had founded two rival
schools of burglary. The Poussinists
broke into an isolated villa. the ordin-
airy occupant of which (an ofliccr) was
absent. Being unable to carry away
all their plumber during the night, they
returned to the charge toward morning,
only to find their rivals, the Bouton-
nists. installed in their places. There
upon row ehsued among the robbers.
The disused arms which We're hung up
as monuments in the officers museum
were taken down from their pegs. and
the combatants attacked each other
energetically with sabers, the butts
of muskets and old-fashioned arms,
The sight of flowing blood, however,
soon da mped the ardor of the antagon-
istic thieves, and they also feared that
the noise of the struggle would be heard
by the police. A treaty of peace was
accordingly entered into, and the whole
gang cemented their union by grand
banquet in the villa at the expense, OF
course, of its absent owner, whose larder
and wine-cellar were requisitioned to
some purpose. Boutonne, one of the
chiefs, drank six bottles of champagne
and one of cognac, after which, being
no doubt unable to oblige the company
with song or a recitation, he amused
his companions by turning somersets
over the chairs and tables, and doing
the Gallic equivalent for double shuttle
on top of an Erard piano. After this
the amalgamated band worked with the
utmost boldness and energy in different
suburbs of Paris. They did successful
strokes of business in lonely houses, in
variably ransacked the meat and wine
departments, and left grateful notes OF
acknowledgement on the dining-room
tables for the disconsolate proprietors.
In one instance Poussin and Boutonne
congratulated Il despoiled house-owner
on the excellence of his poultry, and
promised to return in order to render
the customary visite dc digestion. The
whole of this audacious band, number
ing about twenty-five men, has been
arrested. Poussin ia an old zouave, and
Boutonne is good-for-nothing dare
devil of highly respectable origin, who
was educated in the School of Arts and
Manufactures. .-Paris Letter.

The End of the World.

Sir William Thompson now furnishes
the cheerful scientific information that we
cannot reckon on more than 100000 or
100000 more years of sunlight to come.
" He thinks it would be rash to assume that
we had had more than 20,000,000 wears of
sunlight in the past" And we entirely
agree with him. Indeed, we think it rash
to assume that we have had more than 10,
999, $50. But what is a score of millions to
scientist? Mere bagatelle. The fact how
ever, that interests us personally and indi-
vidually is the grave assertion that we have
only 100000 or 100000 of years more
of sunlight before us. When we come
to think that for the last 100000, or per-
haps 100000 of those years the sun will
De failing to an extent calculated 70 make
this globe very chilly, if not too cold for
habitation, it is plain that the time allowed
us may be shortened to that extent and we
may be reduced to the startling prospect of
only 100000 more years-hardly time
enough to realize the blessings of reform
within the party" Really there ought to
be something done with these scientific
men. If there is anything they delight in
1t is in destroying the comfort of their
neighbors. You never hear of ANYTHING be-
ing made to appear more beautiful or pleas
ing by them. 1t is always something re-
voting. They rub their hands with sup
pressed glee when telling you that each
drop of water is filled with loathsome rep
tiles and hideous wriggiing things; that a
drop of vinegar is whole menagerie con-
densed; that the food we eat is alive with
minute vernin, and the very air we breathe
OF death dealing germs. And now one of
them has struck upon the inspiring idea
that the world will come to an end at a
certain time-that in fact we are doomed
after the lapse of 100000 years. Why a
man cannot be scientist and be pleasant
also is something that nobody can under
st9nd. They are the most malicious peo-
pie on earth. And as for Sir VIM Thomp-
son we shall decline to give credence to his
prophecy even if it comes rue.-Baltimore
